Dear Madam,
We are very anxious to procure, with your
permission, a series of Cinematograph pictures of
yourself at home with your pet snakes.
These pictures would be published in
our well-known weekly Interest film "EVE & EVERYBODY'S
FILM REVIEW", which deals entirely with Women's
Activities.
Any day that is convenient to you would
suit us - weather permitting of course - and if
you are engaged during the week, Saturday or Sunday
would be quite convenient for us to take this film.
Thanking you in anticipation of your kind
permission.
Yours faithfully,
Patrice
